Haven't a clue what to get my boyfriends parents for Christmas this year :S

My dad is really ungrateful and moans at every present he receives so he's easy, every birthday, Christmas, Fathers Day, he just gets money in a card. I took my mum shopping and bought her an outfit but I'm struggling with Chris's parents. I don't know whether to get them something together or individual gifts.

What are you lot getting your parents / in laws?

i settled on a digital photo frame for the parentals this year, they both live in a different town (they are divorced) and i dont see very much of either of them, my kids dont even know them and my dad is always harping on about his new grandaughter (who lives with him) so i might preload the frames with tons of piccies of my kids see if they both get they message! hehe

I was thinking about a digital photo frame myself actually, after someone else suggested it today. His mum would really appreciate that.

He's useless!!! I've asked him but he just says I don't know. If it was left up to him, they'd have sweet f.a. :spin:

Best option I think if you're unsure is to ask! I always think it's better to ask coz I know I'd rather people ask me than buy me stuff I don't want/need. Don't wana sound ungrateful but it's better not to waste money on stuff that's never gona get used.

I've been keeping an eye out for things for Buttys family as he's so laid back he'd leave it all to the last minute and it's loads cheaper if you can look around. Lol.

Good Luck x
